Author: Nick Hatch, M.D.

Educational Pearls

  • CPR-induced consciousness is a phenomenon that occurs when someone who was previously unconscious and is undergoing CPR regains consciousness and makes purposeful movements.
  • Studies have shown that this phenomenon is increasing, likely because of increased quality of CPR.
  • Many people use a sedative such as ketamine to keep patients unconscious to reduce the psychologic trauma of CPR.
  • 39% of people who survive CPR with good neurologic details remember the process of CPR .
